  nearly three-quarters (74%) thought the tie would not survive within british firms beyond the next half a

  century with the popularity of the open-collared shirt。

  its demise is being blamed on the boom in creative businesses, such as facebook and google, and online trading

  companies where formal dress codes tend to be shunned in favour of a more casual approach。

  once considered an important part of business dress, the tie has become a victim of the spread of "casual

  fridays" into other weekdays, according to researchers。

  the poll, by dealjungle.com, which helps small and medium enterprises, found more than half (51%) thought the

  tie would be obsolete in offices within the next 20 years and almost a quarter (22%) believed it would last less

  than 10 years。

  a spokesman for the site, which has 20,000 registered members, said: "ties have been around seemingly forever

  but increasing numbers of office workers are telling them to get knotted。

  "the success of businesses such as facebook and google, where even the ceo turns up wearing jeans and a hoodie,

  also seems to have had a corrosive effect on the idea of dressing formally for work。

  "many of our members keep their overheads to a minimum by working from home so they feel no need to dress up to

  go to work。

  "we know that when they meet with clients, they still put on a business suit, but a tie is no longer seen as an

  essential part of the suited-and-booted look。

  "instead, many businessmen and increasing numbers of executives opt for a suit and shirt with an open collar。

  "the tie-less suit creates an impression of a more approachable deal maker, someone who is still business-

  minded, yet creative and technology-savvy, too."

  调查显示,在未来50年内,领带将可能被职场白领淘汰,和礼帽一样被放逐到服饰博物馆去。

  随着开领衬衫日渐流行,近四分之三(74%)的人认为在未来的半个世纪内,领带将会从英国职场消失。

  领带的消亡被归咎于facebook和谷歌等创意产业和在线交易公司的兴盛,这些企业一般不会规定穿正式服装,而倾向于更休闲

  的装扮。

  研究人员称,曾经被视为商务着装重要部分的领带已沦为“星期五便装日”泛滥的牺牲品。

  为中小企业服务的dealjungle.com开展的这一调查发现,超过半数(51%)的人认为领带在未来20年内会被职场淘汰,近四分之一

  (22%)的人认为领带会在十年内消亡。

  该网站的发言人称:“领带似乎一直存在于我们身边,但越来越多的职场员工将自己的领带闲置一边。”该网站有2万名注册会
